- Abstract
- The Middle East, along with the Balkans, historically were zones of Orthodox Christians's settling outside of Russia. This fact largely determined the crucial role of the «Orthodox issue» in the Russian foreign policy in both regions throughout the centuries. However, in recent years, Russian influence on the Balkans have been significantly undermined, which caused the need for active Russian interference in the Middle East affairs due to maintain its presence in the region and to preserve its reputation in the eyes of the Middle Eastern Christians.
